New York Girls
G                               C
As I walked down the Broadway
            G                D
One evening last July
G               C
I met a maid who asked me trade
            G      D          G
And a sailor lad says I

To Tiffany's I took her
I didn’t mind expense
I bought her a pair of gold earrings
And they cost me fifteen cents

Chorus
Away Santee
My Dear Annie
Oh, you New York girls
can't you dance the polka?
[ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/g/gaelic-storm/374617.html ]
And she says, 'You Limejuice sailor
Now see me home you may'
But when we reached her cottage door
She this to me did say

My flash man he's a Yankee
With his hair cut short behind
He wears a pair of black sea-boots
And he sails in the Blackball Line

Chorus

And He's homeward bound this evening
And with me he will stay
So get a move on, sailor-boy
Get cracking on your way

I kissed her hard and proper
Afore her flash man came
So fare thee well, you Bowery girl 
I know your little game

Chorus

And then I wrapped me glad rags round me
And to the docks did steer
I will never court another girl
I'll stick to rum and beer

I joined a Yankee blood-boat
And sailed away next morn
Don't mess around with women boys
You're safer ‘round Cape Horn
